2 CAVE CLIMATE COMPARISON ACTIVITY BETWEEN THE SURFACE AND THE CAVERN TEACHER INFORMATION ABSTRACT: The students will compare the climate from the Carlsbad, NM airport to the climate within Carlsbad Cavern, NM by graphing climate data from the Western Regional Climate Center and Carlsbad National Park. The temperature and relative humidity hourly data will be graphed to see how these climate factors changed on June1, The average temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation from the surface will be compared to the temperature and relative humidity within Carlsbad Cavern each month from October 2002 through September GRADE LEVEL (S): OBJECTIVES: Students will: Develop a graph format, and graph the data about the temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation at Carlsbad airport, and the temperature and relative humidity in Carlsbad Caverns Compare the climate at the airport to the climate in the cavern on an hourly basis for one day, and the monthly averages for one year. Hypothesize about the affect of cave climate on cave organisms. NATIONAL STANDARDS: Unifying Concepts and Processes Evidence, models, and explanation (5-12) Change, consistency, and measurement (5-12) Science as Inquiry Development of: Abilities necessary to do scientific inquiry (5-12) Understandings about scientific inquiry (5-12) Life Science Development of an understanding of: Matter, energy, and organization in living systems (9-12) Earth and Space Science Development of an understanding of: Structure of the earth system (5-8) Energy in the earth system (9-12) NEW MEXICO STANDARDS: Strand I: Scientific Thinking and Practice Standard I: Understand the processes of scientific investigations and use inquiry and scientific ways of observing, experimenting, predicting, and validating to think critically.

Hourly and Monthly data charts Colored pencils Graph paper BACKGROUND: In Caves the temperature and relative humidity generally becomes more constant as the distance from the entrance increases due to the layers of rock providing insulation and the low air circulation within the cave. The Cave Data was collected at Devils Hill approximately 875 ft from the entrance to Carlsbad Cavern. If a cave has water moving into it, the relative humidity can increase to saturation and above. Relative humidity is measured as a percentage of moisture in the air compared to how much moisture the air could actually hold; the higher the temperature the more moisture the air can hold. With humidity at the saturation point in moist caves, animals that have lived on land must deal with a situation that has been compared to living in freshwater. Now there is no need to conserve water, but there is a need to remove water without losing body salts. PROCEDURES: 1. The hourly and monthly data is provided to show the variation during a day in June as well as the variation over a year. Both of these graphs could be done or just one. 2. The hourly and monthly graphing procedures will be similar. 3. It would be useful if the temperatures and humidities could be graphed on the same sheet of graph paper. 4. Look at the high and low temperature and humidity readings to determine the range for the scales. 5. Graph the data for temperature and relative humidity for each month or hour. Use a different color of pencil for each temperature and humidity set. It might be useful to use similar colors for the temperatures and humidities; for example dark red of airport temperatures and pink for cave temperatures. Make a color key to identify which color represents each temperature and humidity set. CONCLUSIONS: Allow the students to draw conclusions from the graphs. They could include the relationship between temperature and humidity at the airport as well as comparing the airport to the cave conditions. How is the temperature related to the humidity on June 1, 2003? Is there enough Developed by Ray Bowers for the VCE a part of INRAM 45
5 data to say this is always true? How could this be checked? How is the monthly average temperature compare to the monthly humidity? How does the average monthly precipitation affect the humidity at the airport and in the cave? These conclusions could be followed with a discussion about how cave organisms might adapt to the cave climate of constant temperatures and humidities as well as the very high humidities found in caves. Would they need to hibernate during the winter? Would they need a way to keep cool? Would they need to conserve water? References: Culver, David C Cave Life, Evolution and Ecology. Cambridge, Mass.
